Hello

Sorry, I dont often post here so i apologise if this has already come up, but I am after some info google seems unwilling to provide me. Does anybody know about tickets for Lowlands 2010? Some of the sites I have found on Google seem to suggest it has already sold out, including the official web site but this still has 2009 written all over it. I was hoping to go, liking the idea of a festival abroad next year, and Lowlands sounds awesome, having been to the 'Dam a few times it really caught my eye.

Have tickets already gone on sale and sold out? or is this a mistake? If so, when do they go on sale? It does look like a fantastic event, no wonder they sell out so quickly. I know it took a day last year but I thought that was a day in March!

Many thanks!

Hope all is good

Jae

Tickets for 2009 went on sale at the start of February with the first 10,000 tickets going for a €10 reduction of the normal €150. It sold out towards the end of April although they released 500 tickets in July, again at the start of August, and a final 500 just a day or so before the festival ( they claim that these were cancelled tickets from black market sellers, but I presume they're also trying to keep the resale prices down ).

So, I'd be looking for 2010 tickets to go on sale in Jan/Feb next year, but you should have a couple of months to get 'em.

Brilliant, cheers mate. That's what I wanted to hear.

Looks like I might be off to Lowlands!

Do it. The place rocks. Can't go wrong with a few days in the 'dam either side of the fest either.

If you can, stay in Amsterdam for at least one night so you dont have to travel from the UK to the fest in 1 day. Tried that the first time we went, left the house at 7am and got into the fest at around 10pm. Not fun.

Kees van Hondt is a Lowlands Legend. Most of the time closing up sundaynight somehere.
Indeed presale starts at 20th feb. Last year it sold out in may, so I think it'll be earlier this year as the festival is becoming more and more popular. You best get your tickets straight away.

[Capzilla]

It's selling out so soon as of late because the last years the weather has been excellent. One washed down weekend and the year after many people will not buy tickets so quickly and wait for the big names on the programme.

That said, I'm going to get my tickets the 20th at the pre-sale party..

[choadus]

Its a good festival, yet its allmost too chilled out. The campsite didnt have much action in like other festivals i've been to.

[Capzilla]

True, although it depends a lot on which camping you go to. Camping three traditionally has most activity. Two is more quiet than you'd expect (those willing to stay near the nighttent are probably in it anyway).

[choadus]

we were in 4 i think, was pretty busy when we arived

Last year they had a section in english that listed the places you could get tickets from abroad. If I remember correctly it was lastminute.com

I'm sure if you ara patient they will realease all the ticket details next weekend when they go on sale.

[Capzilla]

The website will be updated when the tickets for 2010 go on sale, no sooner and no later.

[Semprini]

Initial line up announcement will be Saturday and then, as previously stated, tickets go on sale Sunday. Rumours from the Dutch forums are Blink 182, Iggy and the Stooges and Fun Lovin Criminals. Blood Red Shoes have self confirmed in an interview here. It's mostly in Dutch but they've translated the main part that relates to Lowlands.

[Semprini]

First official names are in:

Blink 182
Plastikman
Admiral Freebee

I'm not sure if that's it for now or if they'll announce some more in conjunction with the launch party/gig tonight??? I'm really hoping Plastikman will be confirmed for Pukkelpop now

So, tickets are now on sale for €155, with the only official outlet being livenation.nl/eventim.nl. Like last year, tickets bought from third party sites run the risk of being cancelled, so be careful. Just follow the links directly from the ticket section of the Lowlands.nl web site.

If you choose to print out your own tickets, there's no delivery costs and no problem buying from abroad. Otherwise its an extra €25 per order for registered delivery of "real", printed tickets.

NOFX announced at LLaunch, close to 4am.
